Dear Greenpeace was about a whale and a little girl. The little girl found a whale in her pond and started sending letters to "Greenpeace."

I liked the name Arthur for a whale. I like that I now know stuff about whales, like they need salty water.

My favourite bit of the story is when the little girl keeps thinking there is a whale in a pond but Greenpeace keep saying that there will it be a whale in her pond because the way I would be too big .

The reason I rated this book a 3, was because it was very nice and sweet but it kind of annoyed me how greenpeace kept ignoring the girl and saying she was wrong that she had a whale in her pond.

I liked it was letters between 2 people and about a whale as I like whales.

This was a book about a whale and a little girl that has the same name as me, Emily! I like this book because it was very different because it was all letters between Greenpeace and Emily and it was a bit funny at times too, but whales don’t usually live in a pond! My favourite bit was when Emily sees her whale at the seaside. I would recommend this book to my friend because she is a big fan of reading and likes the ocean.

This is about a girl called Emily who finds a whale in her pond. She writes letters to Greenpeace but they keep saying that you can't have a whale in your pond. She keeps writing back and once they said that they need salt water so she started putting salt in the pond. The best bit is where Emily sees the whale in the ocean. She gives it some of her sandwich and she strokes his head!

I found this book a little strange. Was there really a whale or not? I like the lettersand thought it was funny she fes the whale her breakfast but I wouldn't read it again.

Lovely book

You should read this because I think Emily was actually telling the truth that there was actually a whale.

We read this in school, then read it with Mummy. I like whales and this was a really good book. It was sad when Emily's whale, Arthur went away.
